Hello TParis,


</div>
It looks to me that ] also have some problems with agressive users who treat Misplaced Pages as battleground while at the same time he has also engaged in edit warring over multiple articles triggered by his POV pushing as can been from his edit history just with an idle click . Does his report remind you of anything ?
</div>
:Natch, I remember that you told me that you were tried of it , however, I received a highly controversial one long month ArbCom block for wikistaling and editwarring issued by ] who I have never ever encountered on Misplaced Pages; it is likely that Ironholds is a talk page stalker of yours. Please note that the diffs could be as old as 5 days within the block entry at that time when I received the ArbCom block. Furthermore, it is not possible to issue a digwurren block for edit warring unless I am subject to a revert restriction as per WP: digwurren ,nor is it possible to corroborate wikistalking with 3 diffs without formal proceeding. It is a serious claim, and it requires very serious proofs. And in case there is no formal proceeding, a block still requieres some kind of interaction between the blocking administrator and blocked user and that did not happen. So I am obliged to appeal this poppycock unless I want to leave Misplaced Pages.--] (]) 14:23, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

:::::Who did I accuse of wikistalking? It was me who was blocked for wikistalking. Apart from that, I would like to accuse anybody of anyting. However, my block entry may be exploited against me as spear-head saying that once already I was blocked for wikistalking, which is true, only that the block rationale is all gammon and spinach. I accused nobody of wikistalking, nor did I blame anybody for anything. I just did let you know what was going on at WP ANI that I do not think is disruptive. Here my aim was trying to give you a more detailed insight on the case before a possible forthcoming appealing rather than blackmouthing anybody.
::::::That is why I can't drop the stick to avert the spear-head spiked against me. So if I happened to appeal the block rationale, would you consider unfolding your opinion therein?

I'm going to have to ask that you carefully reread the pledge that I wrote. Please note that it does not refer to the status of the image - it does not require that the image stay the same, change, or be removed. It is a pledge not to engage in futile discussion.

:::Hi Sarek! You're of course always welcome here, you should visit more often. ;) I might agree with you had Hipocrite's proposal not used the word "Shun" or involved ignoring others as a "pledge". I can't imagine a scenario where that would be considered a "good intention." Has the issue fallen to beating a dead horse? Yeah. That doesn't mean there isnt a chance that a new idea, criticism, or proposal might spring up within 6 months. The difference between Hipocrit's proposal and Olive's proposal is that Olive's involved restricting oneself, Hipocrite's involves restricting others.--v/r - ]] 23:15, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
::::While I had the same reaction as you to the word "shun", I think we might be taking it too seriously.

:::::I hadn't considered that perspective. Having considered it now, though, I still have to disagree. Olive's may involve removing the image for six months, but it doesnt have to do with silencing others. If, and this is a long if because I'll admit that discussion hasn't gone anywhere, someone were to come along with a radical new proposal that changes everyone's perspective and the community can come to a unanimous consensus than the image could be restored prior to six months. Self imposed restrictions can be self-unimposed. Hipocrit's proposal would silence anyone with any idea whether new or old for six months with no opportunity for a ].

Hi, TParis. Earlier today I unprotected an article talk page that you had semiprotected for one month, apparently to prevent IPs from posting non-editing-related comments.

== ''The Bugle'': Issue 225, January 2025 ==
I recall that somewhere around here there is a guideline against protecting article talk pages except in extreme circumstances.


{| style="width: 100%;"
This particular instance, involving ], pretty well illustrates why that "rule" would have been adopted. A different user had shown up and deleted some reliably sourced content from the article, claiming it wasn't true. I reverted, and left a message on the user's talk page suggesting they bring their concern to the article talk page, since that's the place where these kinds of things are supposed to be discussed. But this user isn't autoconfirmed yet, so the discussion got started on my user talk page (a totally inappropriate place to start a content discussion, but the appropriate place wasn't available). One thing leads to another, and that another leads to some other thing... To avoid these kinds of unintended consequences, let's try to keep article talk pages available for article talk -- OK? --] (]) 02:22, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
| valign="top" style="border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em;" |
:Hi. Before protecting, I consulted ] where it says "In addition, administrators may apply temporary semi-protection on pages that are...Article discussion pages, when they have been subject to persistent disruption. Such protection should be used sparingly because it prevents unregistered and newly registered users from participating in discussions." I took the latter part into consideration but considered the libeous edits worth a month of semi protection. If you disagree, that's fine, I'm not going to run back and reapply it; but then let's both keep an eye on it, ok?--v/r - ]] 02:38, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
{|
::Maybe several years of editing articles about educational institutions with bad reputations has given me a thick skin, but I have to say that I find nothing particularly unusual about the content that was posted on that talk page. Similar stuff -- and worse -- gets added to article pages on a rather frequent basis. Defamatory content is more damaging in articles than on talk pages, so when that kind of content is added to articles, it gets removed pretty quickly. Additionally, if it's added repeatedly the articles do get protected, but 10 edits by ~8 different IPs over a 3-week period is not, as a general rule, enough "persistent vandalism" to get an article page semi-protected at ]. --] (]) 04:22, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
